SUPER...

In the news today....Kirstie Alley lost weight...again. This woman is out of control with her yo-yo weight. Her heart has got to be pissed at her.

She dropped from a size 14 to a 4...Let's see how long this lasts.

She should take a few pointers from Dr. Ozs's 6 Easy Ways to Extend Your Life:

1. Get up off your butt! People who sit for hours at work are going to die sooner. 
2. An egg a day keeps you out of the ground. One egg packs 13% of daily protein and only 4% of daily calories.
3. Take chromium to maintain blood sugar levels. 
4. As my friend Bart would say: Floss!! Apparently cramming before you see the dentist isn't really effective. Who knew?
5. Check your pulse when you wake up in the morning. You might already be dead, in which case, these pointers would be useless.
6. Do a self-massage...no, not that kind. Start with your thumbs by the sides of your nose and walk the index and middle finger across to the temple.

Superfoods

I'm a big fan of SUPERfoods and SUPERsets. They're...SUPERawesome. Here are just a few SUPERfoods you can easily include in your diet to keep you alive. 

1. Beets
2. Horseradish 
3. Sweet potatoes
4. Cruciferous veggies--cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli rabe
5. Blueberries
6. Dark, leafy greens
7. Canned Salmon

Now you say, Great, but what the heck can I make with these things. Well people here ya go:

Beet dip with Sour Cream and Horseradish

Sweet Potato and Chickpea Puree

Miso Noodle Soup

Salmon Cakes

Pasta with Walnut Pesto, Sausage, and Brocolli Rabe

Frozen Yogurt Sundae with Spiced Nuts
